opening scene from the film

SING AS WE GO
(From the film: "Sing as We Go," 1934)
(Harry Parr-Davies)
As sung by Gracie Fields

CHORUS: Sing as we go, and let the world go by.
Singing a song, we march along the highway.
Say goodbye to sorrow.
There's always tomorrow
To think of today.
Sing as we go, although the skies are grey.
Beggar or king, you've got to sing a gay tune.
A song and a smile,
Making life worthwhile,
So sing, as we go along.

VERSE: Blues, where are you now?
You ought to know that I've no use for you.
Frown, get off my brow.
It's plain to see that from now on we're through.
Take to the south and sing morning and night.
I see a better day coming in sight.

CHORUS TWICE.
